Winemaker's Notes: "This wine is a coppery-colored blanc de noir from deeply colored, aromatic Cinsault grapes. The fruit from this 140 year-old vineyard ripened relatively quickly in this warm, dry year, and with a very balanced and fruitful crop. The wine is intense and delicate at once; aromatic, perfumed, feminine. Malolactic fermentation was inhibited to some degree, and preserved the beautiful acidity of this extraordinarily well-drained vineyard. The wine is a beautiful blanc de noir again-- much more a white wine this year, than a rosé, just as it was in 2012." - Abe Schoener
